Here’s my newest floral in all its bright colors. At 12” square, it’s sure to cheer. This painting is for sale on my website, and you can also find lots of detailed photos. Only $50.00 for this little stunner.
colorcatstudios101.etsy.comDon’t you just love the layers? In this tiny piece I’ve got a crayon resist done with watercolors and acrylics, a paint marker (and pencil under it all,) and then those lovely Golden fluid acrylics on top to balance it all out and brighten everything. Such a fun piece!
If you feel something wonderfully warm, if you hear something stretch within itself, it’s my squash. ❤️ ❤️
In the North we grew so much squash everyone would come to church with grocery bags full of the stuff. We would look at each others’ bags and try to give it away to someone, anyone! This is the first time in 19 years, since we’ve lived down here, that I’ve been able to grow squash.
We shall see if it can stretch itself into yummyhood before squirrel, opossum, coon, humidity, mysterious phenomenon or Act of God takes it out. We shall see. Artists are forever optimists.
Oh, the beauty with which God has surrounded us! Thank you, Lord!!
This feed is supposed to be about art, but really, all art we create is just a cheap imitation of the art God creates. This is my delphinium sporting what I think is one of the most perfect combination of blues in all creation, tying for first place with the bluebird. Because we had such a nice cold winter and a long, cool spring, it’s on its second bloom.
All nature rejoices at the beautiful rain we got last night. My coleus certainly do! These pretty babies make ME rejoice! Wasn’t God good to give us beauty? He didn’t have to do that. A tiny reflection of Him.
These do well in the shade, and actually get dappled sunlight for several hours a day. So pretty, and really inspiring for this artist.
There is nothing like pen and watercolor for me. Actually, for this one I added acrylics and gold, so let me rephrase that... There is nothing like mixed media art for me. One of my favorite things is layering the colors so that you can see the different colors blending through previous layers. As a musician I like complicated music layered with a lot of different instruments, beats, voices and harmonies going on simultaneously. The same goes for my taste in art. All this to say, isn’t this a lovely onion? And the good news is that you too can own this complex beauty celebrating an aromatic blend of colors and mediums. Find it on my website,

A tiny bouquet of baby bay leaves to help me stay out of the garden and in my studio today. If you EVER need bay leaves, ask! My tree grows so fast that I’m always trimming branches off. Wonderful flavor, pretty in bouquets. Even looks pretty on a palette!
